I plan to use it for epub, but would like to use for pdf as well.

If it's up to those units, I'd definitely go for Opus. Gen3, in my opinion, is a bit "outdated".
Like JSWolf wrote: If you're into PDF, you might consider alternatives. On 5", PDFs only make sense in reflow (if the respective unit even offers zoom, not all do). But very often, that's the opposite you want to have with PDFs. Original idea of PDFs was, to "conserve" the layout.
So, if you're into "professional" PDFs, they're usually letter/A4. The closer the display to that size, the better. Meaning 8" or bigger.
